Amygdalin Powder

Product Details

Amygdalin Powder is the seed of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) or mountain apricot, a deciduous tree plant of the Rosaceae family. Almonds are divided into two types: sweet almonds and bitter almonds. It mainly contains amygdalin powderygdalin, fatty oil, amygdalin enzyme, amygdalinase, cherry leaf enzyme, estrone, α-estradiol, streptosterol, amygdalin enzyme, cholesterol and other components, which have high nutritional value and can be widely used Used in various industries.

It is mainly used in the production of raw materials for health products, natural fruit powder, food, feed, beverages, cosmetic additives, as well as botanical pesticides and veterinary drugs.

Health Benefits

• Antitussive and antiasthmatic effects

  The main active ingredients in bitter almonds can be hydrolyzed by intestinal microbial enzymes or bitter almond enzymes contained in bitter almonds in the body to produce trace amounts of hydrocyanic acid and benzaldehyde, which have an inhibitory effect on the respiratory center and achieve antitussive effect.

• Effects on the digestive system

  Almonds have a bitter taste and are rich in fatty oils. Fat oil can improve the lubricating effect of intestinal contents on the mucous membrane, so almonds have the function of laxative. When amygdalin is decomposed by enzymes to form hydrocyanic acid, it also produces benzaldehyde, which can inhibit the activity of pepsin, thereby affecting the digestive function.

• Anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects

  Aqueous extract of defatted bitter almond has inhibitory effect on acetic acid-induced writhing response in mice and cotton ball-induced granulomatous inflammation in rats. The mouse hot plate method and the acetic acid writhing method confirmed that amygdalin has analgesic effect, but it is different from the analgesic of morphine. It can decompose the produced benzaldehyde static benzoin condensing enzyme to generate benzoin. Benzoin has analgesic effect, so some people in China use bitter almonds to treat advanced liver cancer to relieve the pain of patients, and some do not even need to take painkillers.

• Anti-tumor effect

  It is a kind of vitamin B17, which has the effect of preventing and treating tumors, and proposes some theories and experimental data. For example, it is believed that the anaerobic degradation of tumor cells is dominant, and the final product is lactic acid. The acidic environment is conducive to improving the activity of β-glucosidase, prompting it to decompose more benzaldehyde and hydrocyanic acid in tumor cells, and produce parabens. Selective killing of tumor cells.

• Hypolipidemic effect

  Almonds can significantly reduce blood lipid levels in patients with hyperlipidemia, among which serum total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) have the most significant decreases, decreasing by 10.6% and 8.1%, respectively. There was no significant change in protein cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein B (Apo B) was significantly decreased, and apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) was significantly increased. Spiller (1990) suggested that the monounsaturated fatty acids in almonds help reduce mildly elevated blood lipids in patients without severe dietary restrictions.

• Beauty effect

  Modern research has proved that the fatty oil contained in bitter almonds can soften the stratum corneum of the skin, moisten dry skin, protect nerve endings, blood vessels and tissues and organs, and inhibit bacteria. In addition, the HCN generated by enzymatic hydrolysis can inhibit the active tyrosinase in the body, eliminate pigmentation, freckles, dark spots, etc., so as to achieve the effect of beauty.
